IPMS AMPSEast is the largest armor model show on the East coast now covering two full days, featuring 80 vendor tables, 6 seminars, and our famous monster raffle along with the IPMS AMPSEast model show and contest!
Two days of hanging out in the world's best armor hobby shop, workshop seminars, viewing some of the best built models in the world, hanging out with some of the worlds best modelers, learning new tricks and tips, reuniting with old friends, meeting internet friends in person, and having a few with friends new and old at the bar in the evening. Cross the bridge in front of the hotel and choose among 40 fine restaurants and fast food. You will enjoy every moment of the weekend.
The show will be held Friday September 23th and Saturday, September 24th, 2011, at the Danbury Plaza Hotel and Conference Center, 18 Old Ridgebury Rd., Danbury CT. For attendees and vendors staying at the hotel the Danbury Plaza is pleased to offer a special show room rate.

As anyone who attended the 2010 show will attest, the Danbury Plaza Hotel is a first class venue with outstanding amenities. It is also conveniently located one exit from the
Danbury Fair Mall and the Military Museum of Southern New England.
We have also worked with the Military Museum of Southern New England to make the show weekend "Open Turret Weekend" at the museum featuring re-enactors and allowing you to climb inside many of the vehicles at the museum.

Thanks Matt,should be there.Looking forward to see the AK stuff among others

Hello Matt, I was looking forward to the show, but regret that I will not be able to attend this year, because my ungrateful son, with a total lack of concern for his father's needs and wishes, had the unmitigated gall to put the desires of a mere woman first and go and schedule his wedding for that weekend! I protested vigorously but to no avail. I suspect that this is some kind of revenge for not letting him play with Daddy's "toys" when he was much younger! Al

Only two days to go - this show is huge!

36 hours till we open the doors to armor overload! This is going to be the perfect storm of kits, vendors, and modelers!

I'll see you Friday Morning.

missing it yet again,
home energy audit could not be rescheduled..

Sorry, I had promised Georg to judge, but had a last-minute business trip come up.

I know, why work when there's so many kit to build.

I'm sure it was a smash.

I had a great time as usual at this show.
Was great to see everybody.
I'll try to get my photos edited and posted during the week.
